Thermostat wiring help for Honeywell
I am trying to replace a mechanical t-stat (Honeywell LR95329-1) with a programmable one (Honeywell RTH6350).

I have a heatpump with the outside unit being a Frigidaire FT3BA-024KA and the inside unit a Frigidaire B3BM-030K-B.
The old t-stat has both an e wire and and an x wire (jumping to x2). The new t-stat says to put e or x or x2 wire to the e connector. Since I have an e and an x wire, is it ok to put both in the e connector?
Also,the new t-stat says to connect to the aux connector to the w, w1 or w2 wire. I have a w2 wire but also noticed that the w1 connector on the old t-stat has a jumper from the y connector/wire. Does this mean on the new t-stat I should run a jumper from the y connector to the aux connector?
Hopefully, the photo I attached will make a little more sense of my explaination.
Thanks,
Doug

You won't need the jumper on this set up. Below how to hook up.

R----red------R/Rc
W2---white---Aux
E-----brown---E
X-----black----C (since this stat don't have C, tape off and tuck into wall.)
O----orange---O
Y----yellow----Y
in System set up menu.

Thanks Jay,
I didn't realize you had replied to my post and wired everything like you have listed except instead of taping off x, I put both x and e wires to the e connection on the new stat. Everything seemed to be working ok. I'll remove the x wire and tape off. Hopefully I didn't mess anything up. Thanks for your help and extremely quick reply!
